Recommendation

Leaders in politics, innovation and business pay more attention to the future than ever before. Fast-moving technological advances generate so much disruption that building strategy can be difficult. With the Future Today Institute’s 2020 Tech Trends Report, leaders can make more sound decisions about how to invest, grow their business and support their teams. The “quantitative futurists” at FTI cover a broad scope and design their insights for laypeople. Recurring themes are big tech’s expansion into the public sector, data ownership and better regulations in what is increasingly a surveillance state. The FTI’s report can help leaders in business, the sciences and policy making build the future, today.

Take-Aways

  • To capitalize on the future, leaders need to know what it might hold.
  • Artificial Intelligence (AI) and deep learning will transform every industry, connecting devices and integrating data.
  • Big tech’s rapid movement into the public domain creates ethical and regulatory conundrums.
